Definitions
- This invention relates to a sectionaliser for iso ⁇ lating a permanent fault in an electrical power distribution system.
- this invention relates to a sectionaliser for the protection of 11 kV overhead lines.
- the power lines are arranged in ⁇ dendritic structure, with many branch lines, normally referred to as spur lines, emanating from a main supply line. ! * 7ith such an arrangement of power lines, it is possible to isolate a spurline from the rest of the system without disturbing the rest of the system. The possibility of isolating a faulty spur line thus exists within this arrangement.
- a power distribution system as described above will be provided, near the power source, with over ⁇ load and fault protection in the form of a reclosing circuit breaker, which will trip and isolate the whole system from the power source, if a current surge of sufficient magnitude occurs within the system.
- the circuit breaker is of the re ⁇ closing type, then when a characteristic reset time after tripping has elapsed the circuit breaker recloses.
- the circuit breaker has a multi-shot reclosing facility, which means that the breaker recloses more than once before locking out.
- pole mounted expulsion fuses comprise a fuse link mounted across an otherwise insulated gap.
- the fuse link is contained by a non metallic tube which is held in position across the gap by a simple mechanism which itself is latched by the intact fuse link. As a consequence, the fuse link is in tension.
- the fuse link of an expulsion fuse is provided with a fuse element which melts when a * sufficiently large current surge flows within the fuse. By the melting of the fuse element, the circuit is broken physically, but not yet electrically, and arcing commences within the tube.
- Arcing persists for typically 10ms to 100ms and can be accompanied by a loud explosion from within the tube which can cause flame and hot gas to be emitted for up to 2m out of each end of the tube.
- the tube is unlatched from tlie - fuse mount, but arcing starts and ends with the tube in largely the closed position while yet a fair electrical contact remains between the top of the tube and the top contact of the fuse mount.
- arcing ends the top of the tube continues to fall away from the top of the fuse mount and finally the tube hangs inverted from the bottom of the fuse mount thus providing an isolating distance and a visual indication to a linesman nearby that the fuse has blown.
- Group fused system In distribution networks, many types of protection are used. One known as the "Group fused system" is in extensive
- a circuit breaker typically an oil filled automatically reclosing circuit breaker, is provided in each outgoing supply circuit.
- Thi 5 circuit feeds power to various branches.
- Each branch or group of branches may be single phase or three phase and have respectively two or three fuses for protection.
- Such an arrangement is one example of the use of fuses and circu breakers in series. The reason for employing such an 0 arrangement with both fuses and circuit breakers is so tha for a permanent fault, a fuse will isolate the fault con ⁇ taining part of the network whilst, for a transient fault, the circuit breaker will open for sufficient time for the fault to clear.
- a permanent fault is one where damage 5 occurs and is usually associated with a short circuit con ⁇ dition.
- a transient fault is one which is capable of complete self-extinction if the flow of fault current is broken for a short time. These faults are often caused by local breakdowns due to lightning induced voltages on the 0 lines. It is desirable that a transient fault should be dealt with by opening and automatic reclosing of the circuit breaker. If a permanent fault occurs however on one of the remote feeders, then it is undesirable that the main circuit breaker should remain permanently open, and 5 for this reason, fuse protection for individual branches of the network or small groups of branches is desirable. If a fuse ruptures then a small region only of the network is disconnected. It is undesirable however that the fuse should rupture if a transient fault occurs which can be dealt with by the main circuit breaker. For this reason, the performance of the fuses and the circuit breakers have to be suitably matched.
- «&& ⁇ breaker should, in all instances, open and reclose again after a few seconds.. Jf the. fault no longer remains, then it was a transient fault which, has- been extinguished. If the fault still persists, the breaker is left closed to allow.a fuse to rupture. In order that these alternatives are available to the protective equipment, no fuse should rupture before the breaker initially opens.
- the second current surge is detected only if it occurs within a predetermined reclaim period following the first surge current.
- the method may further comprise, in response to the detection of the surge currents, waiting for a predetermined continuous
- This invention also provides a sectionaliser for isolating a spur line of an electrical power distribution system from a main line of the system, which is protected from current overload by a multi-shot reclosing circuit breaker, the sectionaliser comprising means providing a current path through the sectionaliser when closed, means for detecting at least two successive current surges through the sectionaliser followed by a current dead period and an actuating means responsive to detection of said successive current surges to actuate the sectionaliser to break the current path during the subsequent current dead period.
- said means for detecting includes a current transformer coupled to said current path means and a logic circuit connected to the current transformer arranged to register said current surges.
- the logic circuit may be arranged to derive its power supply from the current transformer output.
- the logic circuit is not normally energised, and is arranged to be energised in response to a current flowing in said current path means in excess of a predetermined
- the actuating means comprises a current transformer coupled to said current path means , a discharge capacitor, a rectifier connecting the output of the current transformer to charge up the capacitor , a chemical •actuator which can be electrically fired to break the current path through the sectionaliser and a discharge switch responsive to an actuate signal from the means for detecting to discharge the capacitor to fire the chemical actuator.
- the sectionaliser may comprise a sectionaliser module and a selected one of an expulsion fuse mount or a mount specifically
- the sectionaliser module comprises two end ' fittings , to co-operate with the expulsion fuse mount, and interconnected by a hollow metal tube providing said current path.
- the logic circuit may be located within the metal tube.
- the current transformer may be situated around the metal tube.

- Figure 6 shows a third e ⁇ -bodiment of the sectionaliser
- Figures 7a and 7b show the release mechanism of the sectionaliser of Figure 4 in the latched and unlatched states respectively ;
- Figure 8 shows the pivoted end of the sectionaliser of Figure 6 ;
- Figure 9 shows two chemical actuators respectively in pre-fired and fired form as used in the secti ⁇ nalisers of Figures 1 , 4 and 6 ; and
- Figure 10 shows the electronic circuit of the sectionaliser of Figures 1, 4 and 6.
- a sectionaliser as shown in Figure 1, consists of an expulsion fuse mount 10 of known type, in which is mounted a sectionaliser module 20.
- the sectionaliser is . of a type suitable for use in isolating faulty spur lines from the main line in an overhead electrical power distribution system.
- This sectionaliser is designed to operate primarily in a power distribution system in -which the main line is provided with a ⁇ rulti- shot reclosing circuit breaker.
- the fuse mount 10 shown in Figure 1 is of a type designed and manufactured by G.E.C.
- the sectionaliser module 20 comprises a metal casing 22, inside which is situated an electronic circuit 23 ( Figure 2) .
- the metal casing 22 forms the current path across the fuse mount 10, but only whilst the sectionaliser module 20 is in the conducting position shown in Figure 1.
- the casing 22 consists of a copper tube 24, at the ends of which are provided end fittings 25 and 26. End fittings 25 and 26 serve to attach each end of the sectionaliser-module 20 to the fuse mount 10, and are designed so that through-current does not have to flow through any pivots.
- End fitting 25 is such as to allow the sectionaliser module 20 to rotate about fitting 25, when end 28 of the module is fixed to the fuse mount 10, and end 27 is not fixed.
- End fitting 26 which is situated at end 27 of the sectionaliser module, is provided with a chemical actuator 14, and is such that fitting 26 attaches end 27 to the fuse mount 10 until such a time as chemical actuator 14 is fired. When this firing occurs, end fitting 26 is made to disengage from the fuse mount 10. Since end 27 is above end 28 whilst the sectionaliser module 20 is fixed in the conducting position, when end fitting 26 disengages from the fuse mount 10, the sectionaliser module rotates about end fitting 25. As end 27 moves further and further from the fuse mount 10, so a larger and larger gap i formed in the current path. Thus when sectionaliser 20 has swung completely away from its conducting position, there is left a large air gap across the fuse mount 10, which forms a very effective isolation, and so this new position of the sectionaliser 20 may be termed the isolating position.
- FIG. 4 An alternative fuse mount 12 is shown in Figures 4, 5a and 5b.
- the sectionaliser module 20 is of basically similar design, although with different end fittings to suit the different f se mount 12.
- the release mechanism 13 is shown in its latched and unlatched positions in Figures 5a and 5b.
- the essential features are that the actuator 14 unlatches a sprung toggle which again releases a sprung contact in the main current path to allow the mechanism to collapse.
- a linesman simply has to press on one side of the mechanism for it to be locked again.
- a third alternative fuse mount 11 is shown in Figures 6, 7a and 7b.
- the sectionaliser module 20 has similar fittings to that of Figure 4, but the chemical actuator 14 is situated at the upper end of the section ⁇ aliser.
- the release mechanism 13 is shown in its latched and unlatched positions in Figures 7a and 7b.
- the chemical actuator is operated, the pivoted handle 15 is
- the chemical actuator 14 consists of a hollow cylindrical metal body 40, as shown in Figure 9. This metal body contains a small explosive charge. Two electrical wires 41 and 42 pass through one end of the body 40, and into the explosive charge, so that when a current is passed through these wires, the explosive charge detonates.
- the end of metal body 40 through which the wires 41 and 42 pass is encased in a cylindrical plastic cap 43.
- a screw thread 45 which is used . to attach chemical actuator 14 to end fitting 26.
- a driving pin 44 At the same end as the screw thread 45 on the body 40, is situated a driving pin 44. ⁇ When the explosive charge is detonated, the driving pin 44 is driven out of the end 46 of body 44, this movement of the driving pin being the mechanical movement which causes the end fitting 26 to disengage from fuse mount 10.
- an electronic circuit 23 Within the casing 22 is an electronic circuit 23. This electronic circuit is energised via two current transformers 30 and 31 C Figure 1 ' 0) . These- transformers are situated within a cylindrical housing 29, about the centre of tube 24.
- transformers 3Q and 31 are separately - rectified by rectifiers 32 and 33 respectively.
- the D.C. output from rectifier 32 is used to charge up reservoir capacitor 34, via diode 51, which capacitor supplies at the desired time the current discharge which fires the chemical actuator 14.
- the diode 51 prevents reservoir capacitor 34 discharging when the D.C. voltage output from rectifier 32 falls below the voltage across the reservoir capacitor.
- Thyristor 52 controlled by zener diode 53 limits the voltage supplied to capacitor 34 to 56 volts.
- the current transformer 31 and the bridge rectifier 33 provide the D.C. supply to the remainder of the circuit.
- a current surge through the sectionaliser is detected by a sub-circuit comprising components 60 to 65.
- the pick up current the voltage developed by the secondary of trans ⁇ former 31 is sufficient to raise the voltage across Diac 60 to above its triggering voltage.
- Capacitor 63 is then charged via resistor 61, Diac 60 and diode 62.
- the voltage across capacitor 63- is limited by a zener diode shunt stabili er 64 to 12 volts.
- the charge held by capacitor 63 provides the power supply for logic gates 70 to 74, and for transistors 75 and 76.
- the value of the pick up current s determined by resistor 65.
- resistor 65 When a charge has appeared on capacitor 63, then a voltage will appear, between the collector and the emitter of transistor 75.
- the base of transistor 75 is connected to the rectified - output of the secondary of transformer 31 via resistor 66 and clamping diode 67.
- Transistor 75 is thus switched at a rate of 100 Hz, which holds the charge on capacitor 68 to a maximum of 1 volt, by constantly dis ⁇ charging it through transistor 75.
- transistor 75 When the current in the primary of transformer 30 falls below 0.7 amps, however, transistor 75 will no longer be repeatedly switched on, and the voltage across capacitor 68 will rise, being charged from the supply rail through resistor 69.
- OR-gate 71 is connected so as to latch in this On state' i.e. out- putting a logic one, and thus the information of a current surge followed by a drop to a minimal current in the sectionaliser is effectively stored by OR-gate 71.
- the values of 100 milliseconds and 0.7 amps may of course vary substantially without affecting the principle of operation. If current starts to flow in the sectionaliser again, i.e. because the circuit breaker has reclosed, and this current remains below the pick up current, then capacitor 63 will slowly discharge through resistors 80 to 83, and the logic gates 70-74 will become uncharged. This discharge period is called the reclaim time, which in this instance is set at about 25 seconds.
- OR-gate 73 is connected in a similar fashion to OR-gate 71, and so OR-gate 73 stores the information concerning a second current surge.
- transistor 75 When the current next drops below 0.7 amps, transistor 75 will again stop switching, the voltage across capacitor 68 will rise, and after a delay of lOOms, OR-gate 70 will again output a logic 1.
- All the inputs to AND-gate 74 are now logic l's and so gate 74 will output a logic 1, which is fed to the base of transistor 76. This voltage rise supplied to the base of transistor 76 switches the trans- istor on, which causes a current to flow to the gate of thyristor 36, thus triggering thyri.stor 36 to discharge capacitor 34 to operate the chemical actuator.
- the main line 101 is protected by a ground mounted multi-shot reclosing circuit breaker 100 with available three instantaneous trips separated by two decided times of -5 seconds each. From this main line are a number of spur lines 90, 91, 92 and 93. Each spur line is provided adjacent its connection with the main line 101, sectionalisers at 94, 95, 96 and 97.
- a transient or permanent main line fault at say l ⁇ 2 will not affect any sectionaliser and will simply cause the circuit breaker 100 to respond in the conventional manner.
- the breaker would perform three trips to lock-out.
- a transient spur line fault, at say 103 will be seen by one or more of the sectionalisers 94, but would not cause any of them to operate.
- the fault 103 is a transient red-eart 'fault.
- the sectionaliser in the red phase detects the passage of fault current via its current transformer 31 and remembers, for a short while, that an excessive current was present.
- the breaker 100 via its own relays, trips and then remains open for 5 seconds.
- the sectionaliser When the breaker recloses normal lo d current flows because he cause of the fault no longer exists, and the sectionaliser.94, after a number of seconds - the sectionaliser reclaim time-forgets the event.
- a spur line permanent fault occurs, say at 103 and again red-earth, the red sectionaliser goes through its complete sequence.
- the sectionaliser detects and remembers, and the circuit breaker trips.
- the breaker 50 now recloses after the first dead time, fault current flows again into the fault.
- the sectionaliser 94 sees now a second period of fault current and remembers this second event. Almost immediately the breaker 100 trips again on instantaneous and starts its second dead time.
- the sectionaliser detects a period of about 100 s during which the current is less than 0.7 amps and unlatches.
- sectionalisers can be used instead of fuses, sectionalisers can also be used with fuses on the same area of network and, in addition, sectionalisers can be used beyond pole mounted reclosing circuit breakers where fuses generally cannot.

Abstract
Dans le procédé en question permettant d'isoler une ligne dérivée d'un système de puissance électrique protégé par un disjoncteur de rétablissement à multi-coups, au moins deux ondes de courant de choc successives sont détectées dans la ligne dérivée et activent les disjoncteurs. En réponse à cette détection, la ligne dérivée est isolée pendant une période morte d'absence de courant. Un dispositif de sectionnement est décrit, lequel permet d'isoler une ligne dérivée d'un système de puissance électrique protégé par un disjoncteur de rétablissement à multi-coups. Le dispositif de sectionnement comprend un boîtier métallique (22) formant un passage de courant par un montage à fusible (10), le dispositif de sectionnement se trouvant en position de conduction. Un circuit électrique (23) à l'intérieur du tube détecte au moins deux ondes de courant de choc successives dans le boîtier et, pendant la période morte qui suit, il agit sur un dispositif de sectionnement chimique (14) pour déclencher le dispositif de sectionnement en le sortant de sa position de conduction.In the method in question making it possible to isolate a branch line from an electrical power system protected by a multi-blow recovery circuit breaker, at least two successive surge current waves are detected in the branch line and activate the circuit breakers. In response to this detection, the branch line is isolated during a dead period of no current. A disconnecting device is described, which makes it possible to isolate a line derived from an electrical power system protected by a multi-blow recovery circuit breaker. The isolating device comprises a metal housing (22) forming a current passage through a fuse assembly (10), the isolating device being in the conduction position. An electrical circuit (23) inside the tube detects at least two successive shock current waves in the housing and, during the following dead period, acts on a chemical disconnect device (14) to trigger the sectioning by removing it from its conduction position.
